  2. Tiled rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiled_rendering

    Tiled rendering is the process of subdividing a computer graphics image by a regular grid in optical space and rendering each section of the grid, or tile, separately.The advantage to this design is that the amount of memory and bandwidth is reduced compared to immediate mode rendering systems that draw the entire frame at once.

    Edges exist between a generator point and its image across a mirror. Up to 3 face types exist centered on the fundamental triangle corners. Right triangle domains can have as few as 1 face type, making regular forms, while general triangles have at least 2 triangle types, leading at best to a quasiregular tiling.

  4. Penrose tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_tiling

    A Penrose tiling with rhombi exhibiting fivefold symmetry. A Penrose tiling is an example of an aperiodic tiling.Here, a tiling is a covering of the plane by non-overlapping polygons or other shapes, and a tiling is aperiodic if it does not contain arbitrarily large periodic regions or patches.

    Furthermore, the "spectre" tile is a "strictly chiral" aperiodic monotile: even if reflections are allowed, every tiling is non-periodic and uses only one chirality of the spectre. That is, there are no tilings of the plane that use both the spectre and its mirror image.

    A p4g pattern can be looked upon as a checkerboard pattern of copies of a square tile with 4-fold rotational symmetry, and its mirror image. Alternatively it can be looked upon (by shifting half a tile) as a checkerboard pattern of copies of a horizontally and vertically symmetric tile and its 90° rotated version.

  7. Triangular tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_tiling

    In geometry, the triangular tiling or triangular tessellation is one of the three regular tilings of the Euclidean plane, and is the only such tiling where the constituent shapes are not parallelogons. Because the internal angle of the equilateral triangle is 60 degrees, six triangles at a point occupy a full 360 degrees.

    A Pythagorean tiling Street Musicians at the Door, Jacob Ochtervelt, 1665.As observed by Nelsen [1] the floor tiles in this painting are set in the Pythagorean tiling. A Pythagorean tiling or two squares tessellation is a tiling of a Euclidean plane by squares of two different sizes, in which each square touches four squares of the other size on its four sides.
